Calcium Plus D3 from Nature's Sunshine - 90 soft chews

Benefits: Supports the structural system. Provides 300 mg of calcium, equivalent to 8 oz. of milk. Supports the health of bones and teeth. Provides 75% of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ new vitamin D3 guidelines. ––– How It Works: Calcium is the most abundant mineral, and lifelong calcium intake is essential for the development and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth. Obtaining adequate calcium is especially important during childhood and adolescence, when bones grow and develop. Each serving of Sunshine Heroes Calcium Plus D3 provides calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D, which work closely together to build strong bones and teeth. Vitamin D is well-known for its role in helping the body maintain healthy levels of calcium and phosphorus and for building and maintaining healthy bones. Calcium can only be absorbed by the body when vitamin D is present. Recent scientific evidence suggests that vitamin D also plays a vital part in maintaining innate immunity. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recently doubled the recommended amount of vitamin D that children should get daily. The new guidelines recommend at least 400 international units (IU) per day. But most children don’t get enough vitamin D. The AAP states that the best way to ensure that children receive adequate vitamin D is through supplementation. ––– Ingredients: Vitamin D3, calcium, phosphorus, sodium and the Sunshine Heroes Protector Shield blend.

Elderberry Immune from Nature's Sunshine - 90 soft chews

Benefits: Supports the immune system. Supplies key immune-enhancing herbs and vitamins. Has a delicious fruit flavor kids love. ––– How It Works: Fall and winter months can be especially challenging for children. Their underdeveloped immune systems and picky diets often lack vitamins and nutrients. Sunshine Heroes Elderberry Immune soft chews provide key vitamins, minerals, herbs and other nutrients that play essential roles in building and maintaining healthy immune function, including vitamin D and elderberry. Mounting evidence shows that in addition to supporting bone health, vitamin D is critical to the immune system. Vitamin D shortages are now being recognized as widespread in the United States, prompting health officials to plan an increase to the Recommended Daily Intakes for children and adults. Scientific evidence suggests that vitamin D offers a variety of benefits to the immune system, including enhancing innate immunity. In fact, vitamin D receptors are present on activated T- and B-lymphocytes, monocytes and macrophages—all important components of the immune system. Elderberry fruit contains flavonoids—antioxidants that help support the immune system. Elderberry has been widely studied and found to boost the immune system. A randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled study found that people who received elderberry extract had significantly stronger immune system response compared to a placebo group. ––– Ingredients: Vitamin C, vitamin D3, zinc, sodium, elderberries extract, astragalus root, Echinacea purpurea root extract, reishi mushroom mycelium, maitake mushroom and the Sunshine Heroes Protector Shield blend.

Probiotic Power from Nature's Sunshine - 90 chewable tablets

Benefits: Supports the digestive and intestinal systems. Aids digestion and intestinal function. Strengthens immune response. ––– How It Works: The human body relies on a healthy level of probiotics for numerous functions, including metabolizing foods, absorbing nutrients and maintaining a proper balance of intestinal flora. Probiotic microbes have a symbiotic relationship with their human hosts—both the probiotics and the humans benefit from their relationship. It is estimated that over 400 different types of normal flora inhabit the human gastrointestinal and genitourinary tracts. Studies have shown that children age 1 to 6 years old who attended day care centers and were given milk containing Lactobacillus rhamnosus missed fewer days of day care than children not receiving the probiotic. Studies have also shown that a healthy intestinal bacterial colonization may reduce the risk of food allergies in infants. Researchers have also found that probiotics aid digestion. Each chewable tablet of Sunshine Heroes Probiotic Power contains 1 billion friendly cultures from 11 strains of probiotics. ––– Ingredients: Bifidobacterium bifidum, Bifidobacterium infantis, Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus rhamnosus, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus brevis, Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus salivarius, Lactobacillus casei, Streptcoccus thermophilus and the Sunshine Heroes Protector Shield blend.
